React-dom versions 16.3.2 and 16.3.3 provide the core functionality for rendering React components within a web browser's Document Object Model (DOM). Both versions are crucial for building interactive user interfaces with React. From a dependency perspective, versions 16.3.2 and 16.3.3 are near-identical, relying on the same versions of key libraries like fbjs, prop-types, loose-envify, and object-assign. This indicates a focus on stability and minimal breaking changes between these releases. Crucially, both versions share the same peer dependency on react: ^16.0.0, meaning they are compatible with any React version starting with 16.0.0 and up, providing developers with flexibility in their React versioning.
The key visible difference lies in the releaseDate and dist.unpackedSize. Version 16.3.3 was released on August 1, 2018, while version 16.3.2 was released earlier on April 16, 2018. A minor increase in dist.unpackedSize from 2020779 to 2020935 could imply minor bug fixes, performance improvements, or very small feature additions in the newer version. For developers choosing between these versions, opting for 16.3.3 is generally recommended, assuming it incorporates the latest fixes and refinements. However, the specific changelog should be reviewed. Both are MIT licensed and available in the official repository.
